So, Price and I typically don’t keep the heat on very much in the house in the winter. That’s crazy, I know.

In fact, we just deal with it and bundle up in layers. As a matter of fact, LOTS OF LAYERS. There are times when we look like Joey from Friends when he dressed up in all of Chandler’s clothes.

Still, we stick to limiting our heat in just a few rooms at a time, despite the fact that we are freezing our buns off because electric heating is so dang expensive. Part of me wishes we had gas heat, because it typically ends up being cheaper, but I like having more control with the electric heat. You just can’t win it all the time. (Basically, it would just be great if we lives somewhere where we didn’t freeze our butts off for months on end!)

However, with Autumn here, we’ve selectively been putting on the heat in order to have the house cozy. After all, she needs to be warm and comfortable, even if that means we are cringing because of the high bill that sure to be on its way.

Since I am such a smarty, I’ve devised a plan to help keep the house warm… keep the stove and oven going as much as possible!

Everything from cookies to pies to pizzas to roasts!

I had seen these Pudding Cookies on Amanda’s blog earlier this year and immediately Pinned them to make them later on in the season. I was so interested in what made these cookies so special. What would the pudding do in these cookies? Well, let me tell you…

While these cookies don’t taste very different from the typical chocolate chip cookie, they are textually different. They are undoubtedly so soft from that yummy vanilla pudding mix that is mixed into the cookie batter. If you like a soft cookie, then you will L-O-V-E these Chocolate Chip Pudding Cookies.

I love soft cookies like this so I wanted to eat them all!! It was so hard, but I resisted, and held back at 2. Then I sent the rest far, far away with Price to share with his office.

But I’m totally hooked on Chocolate Chip Cookies so I’m gonna have to remember to get some more pudding to have on hand for when I make them when another craving hits.

Maybe even in other flavors!!! Oh boy! The possibilities are endless. I can’t wait to try more pudding cookies!

bwahahaha it is SO funny you mention the heat thing cause I have been thinking of that SO much!! I’m thinking about next winter, and what we will do when we can’t be cheap and cold and keep it on 60 like we do now!! I do the same thing to warm it up, only when I am done with the baking I DO leave the oven door open lol

[…] really L-O-V-E pudding cookies so I had to play around with the classic Chocolate Chip Pudding Cookie recipe to give them a fun seasonal spin. I swapped out the vanilla pudding for the pumpkin spice […]
